Chapter 1. The pain of a betrayal
The tinkling of bells above the door of the bridal boutique echoed through the air, mingling with the soft rustle of fabrics and the murmur of excited conversations.
Madison walked down the elegant hallway, her finger brushing against the fine fabric of the suits in front of her.
Her eyes shone with fascination, her heartbeat excitedly, because that would be a wonderful day, she would finally choose the dress she would wear on her wedding day.
She had known Francisco Ferrer, her fiancé, the great love of her life, two years ago, a young millionaire, eccentric, handsome, but loving.
She barely sighed as she imagined herself walking with him down the path to the altar.
"Perfect Miss Fiorency! The dress you asked us for is ready, do you want to try it on? "
A woman spoke to her, taking her out of her thoughts, the salesperson arrived in a beautiful wedding dress, full of sequins, a long train, and a beautiful heart-shaped neckline.
Madison opened her eyes, welcomed, hugged to her chest, and excitedly wanted to try it on.
"Of course I do! It is what I've been waiting for the most. I go to the changing table".
On the way to the dressing room, her phone began to ring insistently in her wallet, she skipped the call, as she was too busy for any interruption, however, it rang again.
She, disappointed at not being able to measure her dress immediately, delicately left it on the hanging clothes and answered.
"Hello?"
"Miss Madison Fiorency," an unknown voice asked on the other end of the phone, Madison, confused, got it right.
"Yes, who's calling?"
"Miss, this is Romina from Manhattan's central hospital, I'm too sorry for what I have to tell you, but your mother died. Could you get closer as soon as possible? "
"What?" Everything vanished before Madison's eyes, a painful emptiness settled on her stomach, she thought she was going to faint at that moment and had to sit down, the beautiful dress she was planning to marry was left aside, the first thing was to bury her mother.
With a broken heart and a wet face from crying, she ran out of the boutique, took out her phone and began to call her fiancé.
"Answer Francisco! Please answer" She kept repeating as she drove to the apartment, she shared with him. His mother had been ill for a few years, and although it pained her, she was waiting for the news of his death, but he did not anticipate that it would be around those days.
She drove with such desperation, that in a few minutes she was in front of the large building where her beloved's bachelor apartment was, she ran in, the news of her mother's death threw her out of control and she did not know exactly what she was doing, she just needed the hug of the person she loved the most.
"Mrs. Madison, where are you going?" The doorman of the building wanted to stop her
"Well, for Francisco's apartment, I live here, José, do you know if he's there?"
The doorman, nervous about what he had to answer, turned pale, and his tongue became tangled.
"Yes, I mean, no, miss, it's just that... "
"Thank you, José, I'll go upstairs." She ignored the man's nervousness and followed her step.
Madison entered the elevator that happened to arrive at that moment and dialed the number of her beloved's floor, her tears rolled down her cheek, her mother, the woman who sacrificed so much for her and her little sister, was now dead, just a couple of weeks before her marriage, Madison wanted to faint, she just needed Francis to comfort her at that moment.
When the elevator arrived, she ran to the large front door of the apartment, took the keys out of her bag, but a strange hunch took over her being, because on the other side of the fine wood, strange sounds could be heard, they could be voices, screams, or moans?
Feeling that her heart was not going to resist, she opened the door cautiously, she entered the apartment little by little when she heard that the main room where she slept with her fiancé, was where the sounds stood out, an agitated female voice asked Francisco "not to stop doing it."
A thick knot pierced Madison's throat, little by little she approached the door and through an opening she realized that a spectacular blonde woman was riding fiercely on her beloved.
"Oh! Francisco, keep it up, do not stop! You make me the happiest woman in the world. You are fantastic! " The woman shouted at him during passion.
Francisco looked at the woman with fascination, with lust, his eyes were ablaze with eroticism, he never looked at Madison with such cadency as he was looking at the woman who piloted him. That just broke Madison's heart
"When I marry Madison and receive my grandfather's inheritance, we'll go together honey, we'll go away from here and we'll be very happy," Francisco said in the middle of gasps.
